A DMX cable and a power twist mains cable are also included as standard.
The Varytec Hero Scan 150 has a 150W LED chip: To create and combine its wealth of effects, it also has six rotating gobos with goboshake function, a three-facet prism that also rotates, and a wheel with seven colours plus white. With a colour temperature of a cool 8000K, this Hero's strobe flashes are particularly impressive, in addition to which the mirror can rotate 160° horizontally and 70° vertically. The scanner is operated either stand-alone with the built-in menu buttons and OLED display, in master-slave mode, or using a separate DMX control, and it comes pre-installed with automated programs and sound-to-light settings.
A device with the capabilities of the Varytec Hero Scan 150 is predestined for the largest stages and venues. Professionals can control all effects via DMX; the Varytec is fitted with both three-pin and five-pin inputs and outputs. The locking power twist sockets ensure a reliable power supply when things get heated. Beginners – perhaps organising a house party – who simply want to get on with using the scanner without additional accessories can use the menu buttons on the devices itself to select from eight automatic light shows, or choose the sound-to-light mode to synch up with the music. The Varytec is also a great choice for DJs and other professional entertainers looking for special effects, as they can choose from a wide range of impressive moves and strobe flashes.
Over the years, Thomann has greatly enriched its already extensive range of lighting products with its in-house brand Varytec.

Tripods, cables, power distributors, and all kinds of other components are, like the lighting solutions themselves, manufactured by well-known names in the field. The firm's direct sales approach, which eliminates intermediate retailers, ensures that all of these products are nevertheless attractively priced. Varytec's range comprises well over 200 items, which will illuminate everything from home-streamer setups to photo studios, theatres, and concert halls.
Anyone planning a larger show can easily use a group of these versatile scanners: Synchronised moves can be effortlessly conducted in master-slave mode, and to mirror the movements of each spot, there's an option in the menu to reverse pan and tilt, so the effects go in opposite directions. The only accessories needed are a few DMX cables. The auto-dimming display, which goes dark 30 seconds after the last input, is particularly practical for theatres, galas, and the like. To suspend the scanner, simply attach a safety cable (sold separately) to the built-in safety eye. In DMX mode, which requires a suitable controller, professionals can programme the Varytec Hero Scan 150 to produce far more automated shows than in stand-alone mode; the scanner will simply need a little calibrating, for example by selecting the back-up mode in the event of a DMX failure.
